| Well Rachel seems nice |
 |
| This is getting better and better :p |
| Am I the only one who finds Rak adorable? 🤣 |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |

| Good episode. Khun is definitely my favorite right now! Also, I seriously hate Rachel. Can't believe she's willing to kill Bam just so she can ascend the tower. |
 |
| "But if you lose, then I win" : thanks for the clarification Anaak, I really needed that ! |
 |
| really good episode! khun is just SUCH a badass. excited for next week |
Neaow said: Armins2 said: I do like the episode in general, Khun is my fave since i read the manwha, and i love Rak. Anyway i don't like what they did with Rachel in the ending of the episode, I mean i can't see why they would do that this soon other than wanting people to hate Rachel sooner than they are supposed to XD Holly hell man why did you do this now I am much curious...why this women turned out to be a b**** character...daem if she has such nature idk why she bothered with mc anyways like if she has such nature then you know ppl like them tends to only engage with ppls if they see some potential benefits from the other party and at that time bam had like nothing...he was empty shell well she didn't actually predicted this whole daem future events didn't she or did she know that he had something special going on for him in real time which bam had somehow lost his past memories or something like that and such daem...if I am the writer I can take this story in as many ways possible. boy lmao, what i said is only the tip of an entire iceberg, |

| worst episode so far. action scenes were underwhelming and the mc is making me question masculinity. at least the show is keeping me interested on what will happen in the future. 2/5 |
Tougen said: Pakumen- said: You should know what a simp is before making the comment. Characters like sanji and zenitsu definitively are. And just in case, no, he is not weak, in about two episodes you will find out is quite the opposite, and honestly it gets ridiculous as the webtoon progresses. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, lots of action, next episode we can finally see best girl in full picture, and the most interesting part of the crown game. I really wonder if we will get a second season eventually, considering how this one will end. The animation and soundtrack were great as always. Bam *is* the definition of a simp, he will do everything his female master tells him to do...hell, he only entered the tower to chase her like the little dog he is. The only thing carrying the show are the side characters because bam is annoying as hell. Except that there wasn't any confirmation in the show as to whether he has romantic feelings for Rachel or not. So if/until it is confirmed beyond any doubt, your claims that the MC is a simp remain as nothing more than just mere assumptions, definitely not facts. Therefore, a far more believable and appropriate statement would be "in my opinion Bam is the definition of a simp". And before you bring up the "I belong to her" line, that still doesn't confirm anything because it could very well mean that he "belongs" to Rachel in the same way a child "belongs" to their parents. After all, from what was shown up until now, she seems to literally be the only human being he ever interacted with prior to his arrival at Headon's floor and more of a mother-figure to him since Rachel taught him basic things that everyone should know like how to write or what is the meaning of conflict. I mean, this man didn't even know what grass is. He ATE grass. So the likelihood that he would even know what romance means is very low. And of course, Bam will believe and do everything the only person that he cares for or knows tells him. He doesn't know any better. Although the protagonist is quite OC in the show since he was far more self-aware and perceptive in the original story, he could even tell that Rachel lies to him sometimes. Don't know why they decided to change that in the anime, to be honest. |

| The lizard girl secretly being a princess was unexpected. I assumed that any of the princesses would be humanoid but I guess I was wrong. That was some top tier trolling by Khun at the end. |

| I wonder why Rachel? is there |

I wonder why Rachel? is there she exists to be |

| I think I've identified my biggest problem with this anime. It's not clear what the stakes are, apparently climbing the tower and participating in those tests is very risky and they can be killed at any moment (unless I got it wrong, the explanations are kinda messy), but there's no tension whatsoever, the characters barely show any emotions, there's very little depth to them and the comedy in random moments doesn't help either. This show just seems lifeless and it's not engaging at all, at least for me. 5/10 at most for now. |

As for other characters well you will find out in time. As of this early in the reading the Webtoon doesn't say anymore. As most of the characters know what it means to climb the tower, but that means for Bam and the reader that knowledge has not been given yet. What you do know is Regulars (Khun, Anaak, Shibisu, Laure) are looking to climb the tower, Rankers (Lero-Ro, Yuri) or the ones giving the test+others have already climbed the tower. |
| Another week and 4th episode of Tower Of God. Probably it has been the best episode so far and I really hope this only get better and better. It´s look like Aguero is becoming in the more interesting character so far while the mystery of Bam and Rachel begins to take form. Waiting for next week! |
| Looks like Rachel doesn't care about Bam anymore. Anak needs to chill a bit lol. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| April's sword is damn cool too, I wonder if the swords always reacts to another sword presence... So its really Rachel... |
 |
| What an awesome episode! This series just keeps getting better and doubt it will keep on getting better. Rak was freaking hilarious as always lol. Also, it looks like the three mysterious people (Aside from Rachel) are going to be joining in on the action. Super excited for the next episode! |

Why do you think right after that the MC said: "they must've been incredible" ? ayaan692 said: AthgarTheLewd said: yeah its like a cheap version of hxhI like how they the show is taking it slow and letting us get to know the characters little by little by opening with a tournament arc of sorts. Reminds me a bit of Hunter x Hunter. It definitely has some similarities, but how exactly is it a "cheap version" of HxH? Do you have any arguments to back this up? |

Why do you think right after that the MC said: "they must've been incredible" ? It definitely has some similarities, but how exactly is it a "cheap version" of HxH? Do you have any arguments to back this up? its still a spoiler we never saw yuri telling bam that she is a ranker so even if there was a hint you ruined it for us to figure it out for ourselves be careful to not do that again and yeah the arguments are easy actually hxh has better art/animation, 3 dimensional characters, and a better overall story with the best power system in shounen anime (nen) which makes tower of god the inferior version It doesn't matter whether Yuri told Bam or not. The show confirmed it for the viewers, they literally threw a flashback of them in our faces while talking about these individuals known as Rankers. It couldn't be more obvious. And if that wasn't enough, Bam also confirmed it by saying what he did. I mean, why would the MC randomly think of these two given the subject of the conversation? So please refrain from throwing accusations such as me "spoiling" things without double-checking your "facts". Hunter X Hunter does indeed have better animation if you were to compare the two by their first episodes so that we can agree on. Art is very subjective, some may welcome or love this unique and rough art style while others might hate it. This highly depends on one's opinion/preferences. You talk about story, but you didn't specify anything in particular just that it's better than ToG's story. Again, where is your argument/reasoning? And you claim that HxH has a "better overall story", but how do you know that when you don't have any idea of ToG's overall story and you just have four episodes worth of story material to compare them? If you just compared their first episodes than I could understand where you're coming from, but since you've specifically stated that it is "better overall" than your argument is invalid and falls apart right from the start. I agree that Nen is the best power system out there, though technically this argument would be invalid as well since, from an anime-only perspective, you barely have anything to go on from these first four episodes in regards to Shinsu and how it really works. Though personally, I think Shinsu is a good power system. Hopefully, the show will explain it well and in detail in the near future. There are already a few three-dimensional characters shown so far such as Khun, Shibisu, Anaak, Serena, Lero-Ro and others that will be introduced later. Assuming that the MC and his lack of personality is your biggest problem regarding the anime's characters than I don't blame you. However, unlike what you may believe, Bam not having a pre-existing personality nor any basic knowledge about the world around him is not a lazy/convenient writing choice to make it easier for the writer to tell his story, but rather a consequence of an event that happened somewhere in the timeline of the story and it wouldn't make sense for him to have one due to that. So whether you like the decision of Bam being a blank-slate character it still makes sense story-wise. He'll definitely mature a lot and develop his own ideals and philosophy over the course of the story but it won't happen overnight. |

| Cool ep. Really does have that first arc of a longer shounen feel with these trials but hope the plotlines develop well. |
| ~ The world is not beautiful, therefore it is. |
PoisonedTea said: Oh okay, thanks for the clarification. I guess it makes sense that we're looking through the same perspective as the mc, who doesn't know much about the tower either. I'll just keep watching for now and hope it'll get more interesting eventually.fuyuki said: I think I've identified my biggest problem with this anime.

He'll definitely mature a lot and develop his own ideals and philosophy over the course of the story but it won't happen overnight. its more obvious to you because you are a reader from an anime only perspective it was only a hint for all we know bam could just think how amazing yuri is so if its not spelled out in the anime pls refrain form it otherwise we wont be able to enjoy this series as much as we normally would the tog fanbase has a really bad habit of spoiling stuff ahead "overall story" i judged it by the premise of these both shows which is pretty easy to guess form the first 4 episodes and it wont reach the greatness hxh had considering they are already soo many issues this series has from the beginning At this point, you're either in denial or just a troll. It doesn't matter whether you're a webtoon reader or not, they couldn't make it more obvious if they tried. If it is just a "hint" as you say, why is it that Bam thought of these two as amazing or incredible at that specific point in time and not before or after the whole affair, but right when they were talking about Rankers? Like I said in my previous comment, double-check your facts. As long as you don't know the "overall story" of both of these series, it doesn't matter from which angle you try to analyze them because it would only be an assumption of yours, nothing more. PS: Regardless of what you claim about me "spoiling" important information about characters such as Yuri, I never revealed backstories, mysteries, or twists of any other character in this series. So again, you're just throwing random accusations at me. Also, you've literally done the exact same thing you're accusing others of doing by mentioning that particular twist without putting a spoiler tag on it like how I did when I quoted your post. Therefore, please edit your original comment. |
